Fix process and file descriptor leak that was exposed when git-annex was

Use ExportTree rather than ExportedLocation for retrieveKeyFile and
checkPresent. When another remote exported the content, ExportTree will
be populated, but ExportedLocation will not be.
It would be possible to implement storeKey to exports as well, but it
risks performing a lot of unncessary work when another repository
already stored the key on the export and the local repository doesn't
know about it.
The only way to avoid that work would be for storeKey to use checkPresentExport
before uploading. But, the other repository could have changed the
exported tree as well, so that can't be trusted, and if it were used in
storeKey, could result in bad information getting into the location log.

Done to avoid a "tmp" directory appearing in webdav exports.
Also affects non-export webdav remotes, so interrupted uploads using the
old path will not overwrite it. However, PUT is quite likely to be
implemented atomically on web servers anyway, so I doubt this will cause
problems.
The subtle part of this is what happens when the remote fails to remove
an empty directory. The removal from the export needs to fail in that
case, so the removal will be tried again later. However, removeExportLocation
has already been run and changed the export db, so if the next run
checks getExportLocation, it might decide nothing remains to be done,
leaving the empty directory.
Dealt with that by making removeEmptyDirectories, handle a failure
by calling addExportLocation, reverting the database changes so the next
run will be guaranteed to try deleting the empty directory again.

Not yet called by Command.Export.
WebDAV needs this to clean up empty collections. Also, example.sh turned
out to not be cleaning up directories when removing content
from them, so it made sense for it to use this.
Remote.Directory did not need it, and since its cleanup method for empty
directories is more efficient than what Command.Export will need to do
to find empty directories, it uses Nothing so that extra work can be
avoided.

Apparently box.com renaming is just buggy. I tried a couple of fixes:
* In case the http Manager was opening multiple connections and reaching
different backend servers, I tried limiting the number of connections
to 1. Didn't help.
* To make sure it was not a http connection reuse problem, I tried
rewriting how exportAction works, so that the same http connection
is clearly open. Didn't help.
So, disable renaming of exports for box.com. It would be good to test it
with some other webdav server.

inDAVLocation does not url-escape, and so exporting a filename with spaces

webdav: Checking if a non-existent file is present on Box.com triggered a
bug in its webdav support that generates an infinite series of redirects.
It seems to redirect foo to foo/ to foo/index.php to
foo/index.php/index.php ... Why a webdav endpoint would behave this way
who knows.
Deal with such problems by assuming such behavior means the file is not
present.
Can't simply disable following redirects, because the webdav endpoint could
legitimately be redirected to a new endpoint. So, when this happens
10 redirects have to be followed, before it gives up and assumes this means
the file does not exist.

In a test, I uploaded a pdf, and several files were derived from it.
After removing the pdf, the derived files went away after approximatly
half an hour. This window does not seem worth warning about every time.
Documented it in the tip.
Since renameExport is allowed to fail for any reason, and its failure is
always recovered from by doing a new upload and deleting the old
content, this avoids unnecessary noise.
Copying a file on the IA failed, apparently something wrong with their

This avoids needing to deal with the complexity of partially transferred
files in the export. We'd not be able to resume uploading to such a file
anyway, so just avoid them.
The implementation in Remote.Directory is not completely ideal, because
it could leave the temp file hanging around in the export directory.
This only happens if it's killed with -9, or there's a power failure;
normally viaTmp cleans up after itself, even when interrupted. I could
not see a better way to do it though, since the export directory might
be the root of a filesystem.
Also some design thoughts on resuming, which depend on storeExport being
atomic.

Rather than providing the key to export, provide the file.
When exporting a treeish that contains files that are not annexed,
this will let the content of those files also be exported.
There's still a Key in the interface; it will be used by the external
special remote protocol. A SHA1 key can be used when exporting
non-annexed files.

Implemented so far for the directory special remote.
Several remotes don't make sense to export to. Regular Git remotes,
obviously, do not. Bup remotes almost certianly do not, since bup would
need to be used to extract the export; same store for Ddar. Web and
Bittorrent are download-only. GCrypt is always encrypted so exporting to
it would be pointless. There's probably no point complicating the Hook
remotes with exporting at this point. External, S3, Glacier, WebDAV,
Rsync, and possibly Tahoe should be modified to support export.
Thought about trying to reuse the storeKey/retrieveKeyFile/removeKey
interface, rather than adding a new interface. But, it seemed better to
keep it separate, to avoid a complicated interface that sometimes
encrypts/chunks key/value storage and sometimes users non-key/value
storage. Any common parts can be factored out.
Note that storeExport is not atomic.
doc/design/exporting_trees_to_special_remotes.mdwn has some things in
the "resuming exports" section that bear on this decision. Basically,
I don't think, at this time, that an atomic storeExport would help with
resuming, because exports are not key/value storage, and we can't be
sure that a partially uploaded file is the same content we're currently
trying to export.
Also, note that ExportLocation will always use unix path separators.
This is important, because users may export from a mix of windows and
unix, and it avoids complicating the API with path conversions,
and ensures that in such a mix, they always use the same locations for
exports.

Security fix: Disallow hostname starting with a dash, which would get
passed to ssh and be treated an option. This could be used by an attacker
who provides a crafted ssh url (for eg a git remote) to execute arbitrary
code via ssh -oProxyCommand.
No CVE has yet been assigned for this hole.
The same class of security hole recently affected git itself,
CVE-2017-1000117.
Method: Identified all places where ssh is run, by git grep '"ssh"'
Converted them all to use a SshHost, if they did not already, for
specifying the hostname.
SshHost was made a data type with a smart constructor, which rejects
hostnames starting with '-'.
Note that git-annex already contains extensive use of Utility.SafeCommand,
which fixes a similar class of problem where a filename starting with a
dash gets passed to a program which treats it as an option.

External special remotes will refuse to operate on keys with spaces in
their names. That has never worked correctly due to the design of the
external special remote protocol. Display an error message suggesting
migration.
Not super happy with this, but it's a pragmatic solution. Better than
complicating the external special remote interface and all external special
remotes.
Note that I only made it use SafeKey in Request, not Response. git-annex
does not construct a Response, so that would not add any safety. And
presumably, if git-annex avoids feeding any such keys to an external
special remote, it will never have a reason to make a Response using such a
key. If it did, it would result in a protocol error anyway.
There's still a Serializeable instance for Key; it's used by P2P.Protocol.
There, the Key is always in the final position, so it's ok if it contains
spaces.
Note that the protocol documentation has been fixed to say that the File
may contain spaces. One way that can happen, even though the Key can't,
is when using direct mode, and the work tree filename contains spaces.
When sending such a file to the external special remote the worktree
filename is used.

Added remote configuration settings annex-ignore-command and
annex-sync-command, which are dynamic equivilants of the annex-ignore
and annex-sync configurations.
For this I needed a new DynamicConfig infrastructure. Its implementation
should be as fast as before when there is no dynamic config, and it caches
so shell commands are only run once.
Note that annex-ignore-command exits nonzero when the remote should be ignored.
While that may seem backwards, it allows using the same command for it as
for annex-sync-command when you want to disable both.

They are handled close the same as they are by git. However, unlike git,
git-annex sometimes needs to pass the -n parameter when using these.
So, this has the potential for breaking some setup, and perhaps there ought
to be a ANNEX_USE_GIT_SSH=1 needed to use these. But I'd rather avoid that
if possible, so let's see if anyone complains.
Almost all places where "ssh" was run have been changed to support the env
vars. Anything still calling sshOptions does not support them. In
particular, rsync special remotes don't. Seems that annex-rsync-transport
already gives sufficient control there.
(Fixed in passing: Remote.Helper.Ssh.toRepo used to extract
remoteAnnexSshOptions and pass them to sshOptions, which was redundant
since sshOptions also extracts those.)

... to avoid it consuming stdin that it shouldn't.
This fixes git-annex-checkpresentkey --batch remote, which didn't output
results for all keys passed into it.
Other git-annex commands that communicate with a remote over ssh may also
have been consuming stdin that they shouldn't have, which could have
impacted using them in eg, shell scripts. For example, a shell script
reading files from stdin and passing them to git annex drop would be
impacted by this bug, whenever git annex drop ran git-annex-shell
checkpresent, it would consume part/all of the stdin that the shell script
was supposed to consume.
Fixed by adding a ConsumeStdin parameter to Annex.Ssh.sshOptions, which
is used throughout git-annex to run ssh (in order for ssh connection
caching to work). Every call site was checked to see if it used
CreatePipe for stdin, and if not was marked NoConsumeStdin.
The check was broken in two ways.. First, nowhere did it error out when
checkUUIDFile found a different UUID already in the file. Instead,
it overwrote the uuid file.
And, checkUUIDFile's implementation was for some reason always failing with
a ConnectionClosed exception. Apparently something to do with using two
different runResourceT's and a response getting GCed inbetween. I'm pretty
sure that used to work, but changed to a more obviously correct
implementation.

Most remotes have an idempotent setup that can be reused for
enableremote, but in a few cases, it needs to tell which, and whether
a UUID was provided to setup was used.
This is groundwork for making initremote be able to provide a UUID.
It should not change any behavior.
Note that it would be nice to make the UUID always be provided to setup,
and make setup not need to generate and return a UUID. What prevented
this simplification is Remote.Git.gitSetup, which needs to reuse the
UUID of the git remote when setting it up, and so has to return that
UUID.

Turns out that Data.List.Utils.split is slow and makes a lot of
allocations. Here's a much simpler single character splitter that behaves
the same (even in wacky corner cases) while running in half the time and
75% the allocations.
As well as being an optimisation, this helps move toward eliminating use of
missingh.
(Data.List.Split.splitOn is nearly as slow as Data.List.Utils.split and
allocates even more.)
I have not benchmarked the effect on git-annex, but would not be surprised
to see some parsing of eg, large streams from git commands run twice as

The attacker could just send a very lot of data, with no \n and it would
all be buffered in memory until the kernel killed git-annex or perhaps OOM
killed some other more valuable process.
This is a low impact security hole, only affecting communication between
local git-annex and git-annex-shell on the remote system. (With either
able to be the attacker). Only those with the right ssh key can do it. And,
there are probably lots of ways to construct git repositories that make git
use a lot of memory in various ways, which would have similar impact as
this attack.
The fix in P2P/IO.hs would have been higher impact, if it had made it to a
released version, since it would have allowed DOSing the tor hidden
service without needing to authenticate.
(The LockContent and NotifyChanges instances may not be really
exploitable; since the line is read and ignored, it probably gets read
lazily and does not end up staying buffered in memory.)

Still a couple bugs:
* Closing the connection to the server leaves git upload-pack /

Is content locking needed in the P2P protocol? Based on re-reading
bugs/concurrent_drop--from_presence_checking_failures.mdwn,
I think so: Peers can form cycles, and multiple peers can all be trying
to drop the same content.
So, added content locking to the protocol, with some difficulty.
The implementation is fine as far as it goes, but note the warning
comment for lockContentWhile -- if the connection to the peer is dropped
unexpectedly, the peer will then unlock the content, and yet the local
side will still think it's locked.
To be honest I'm not sure if Remote.Git's lockKey for ssh remotes
doesn't have the same problem. It checks that the
"ssh remote git-annex-shell lockcontent"
process has not exited, but if the connection closes afer that check,
the lockcontent command will unlock it, and yet the local side will
still think it's locked.
Probably this needs to be fixed by eg, making lockcontent catch any
execptions due to the connection closing, and in that case, wait a
significantly long time before dropping the lock.

For use with tor hidden services, and perhaps other transports later.
Based on Utility.SimpleProtocol, it's a line-based protocol,
interspersed with transfers of bytestrings of a specified size.
Implementation of the local and remote sides of the protocol is done
using a free monad. This lets monadic code be included here, without
tying it to any particular way to get bytes peer-to-peer.
This adds a dependency on the haskell package "free", although that
was probably pulled in transitively from other dependencies already.

ghc 8 added backtraces on uncaught errors. This is great, but git-annex was
using error in many places for a error message targeted at the user, in
some known problem case. A backtrace only confuses such a message, so omit it.
Notably, commands like git annex drop that failed due to eg, numcopies,
used to use error, so had a backtrace.

If a transfer fails for some reason, but some data managed to be sent, the
transfer will be retried. (The assistant already did this.)
Possible impacts:
* More ssh prompts if ssh needs to prompt for a password to connect to a
host, or is prompting about some other problem like a ssh key mismatch.
* More data transfer due to retrying, epecially when a remote does not
support resuming a transfer.
In the worst case, a lot of data will be transferred but it fails before
the end, and then all that data gets transferred again plus one byte more;
repeat until it manages to get the whole file.
Multiple external special remote processes for the same remote will be
started as needed when using -J.
This should not beak any existing external special remotes, because running
multiple git-annex commands at the same time could already start multiple
processes for the same external special remotes.
Note that get --from foo --failed will get things that a previous get --from bar
tried and failed to get, etc. I considered making --failed only retry
transfers from the same remote, but it was easier, and seems more useful,
to not have the same remote requirement.
Noisy due to some refactoring into Types/
Ignore exceptions when getting the cost and availability for the remote,
and return sane defaults. These defaults are not cached, so if a special
remote program has a transient problem, it will re-query it later.
Removed the instance LensGpgEncParams RemoteConfig because it encouraged
code that does not take the RemoteGitConfig into account.
RemoteType's setup was changed to take a RemoteGitConfig,
although the only place that is able to provide a non-empty one is
enableremote, when it's changing an existing remote. This led to several
folow-on changes, and got RemoteGitConfig plumbed through.
This is useful for makking a special remote that anyone with a clone of the
repo and your public keys can upload files to, but only you can decrypt the
files stored in it.
The naming is unofrtunately not consistent, but the gnupg-options
were only used for encrypting, and it's too late to change that.
It would be nice to have a third setting that is always passed to gnupg,
but ~/.gnupg/options can be used to specify such global options when really
needed.
Since git-annex unsets these when started, they have to be explicitly
propigated. Also, this makes --git-dir and --work-tree settings be
reflected in the environment.
The need for this came up in

Fix hang when dropping content needs to lock the content on a ssh remote,
which occurred when the remote has git-annex version 5.20151019 or newer.
Analysis: `race` runs 2 threads at once, and the hGetLine finishes first.
So, it tries to cancel the waitForProcess, but unfortunately that is making
a foreign call and so cannot be canceled. The remote git-annex-shell
is waiting for a line on stdin before it will exit. Deadlock.
This only occurred sometimes; I reproduced it going from darkstar to
elephant, but not from darkstar to darkstar. Not sure how that fits into
the above analysis -- perhaps a race condition is also involved?
Fixed by not using `race`; now the hGetLine will fail with an exception
if the remote git-annex-shell exits without any output.
sshOptions is now designed for working out ssh options only, and may
insert the extra options it is given to the middle. So it is incorrect
to call it with the remote parameters at the end. Instead, append them
to its return value.
This half regressed in 5be7ba7, and presumably regressed fully when
sshOptions was changed some time later.
That trailing slash is needed for legacy chunked mode, because it puts the

Build flags have cost in both code complexity and also make Setup configure

In copyFromRemote, it used to check isDirect, but that was not needed;
the remote is sending the file, so it doesn't matter if the local,
receiving repository is in direct mode or not. And, since the content is not
present, yet, it's certianly not unlocked. Note that, the remote may indeed
be sending an unlocked file, but sendkey uses sendAnnex, which will detect
if the file is modified before or during transfer, and will exit nonzero,
aborting the upload. So, the receiver doesn't need any checks.
In copyToRemote, it forces recvkey to verify content whenever it's being
sent from a v6 repository. recvkey is almost always going to verify content
anyway, unless annex.verify is not set. So, this doesn't make it any more
expensive, except for in that unusual configuration. The alternative would
be to change the recvkey interface, so that the sender checks afterwards if
what it was sending changed, and the receiver then throws out the bad
transfer. That would be less expensive for the reciever, as it would not
need to do a checksum verification. But, it would mean another network
round trip, and since rsync closes the connection, it would need to open
another ssh connection to do this. Even with connction caching, that would
add latency to uploads. It would also complicate the interface, especially
because an older git-annex-shell would not have the new interface
available. For these reasons, I prefer punting on that at this time, and
instead someone might set annex.verify=false and be unhappy that it still
verifies..
(One other gotcha not dealt with is that a v5 repo could be upgraded to v6
while an upload is in progress, and a file unlocked and modified.)
(Also, I double-checked Remote.GCrypt's calls to rsyncParamsRemote, and
they're fine. When a file is being uploaded to gcrypt, or any other special
repository, it is mediated by sendAnnex, so changes will be detected at
that level and the special remote implementation doesn't need to worry
about them.)
The direct flag is also set when sending unlocked content, to support old
versions of git-annex-shell. At some point, the direct flag will be
removed, and only the unlocked flag will be used.
Had everything available, just didn't combine the progress meter with the
other places progress is sent to update it. (And to a remote repo already
did show progress.)
Most special remotes should already display progress meters with -J,
same as without it. One exception to this is the web, since it relies on
wget/curl progress display without -J. Still todo..
* Fix failure to build with aws-0.13.0.
* When built with aws-0.13.0, the S3 special remote can be used to create
google nearline buckets, by setting storageclass=NEARLINE.
Instead, only display transport error if the configlist output doesn't
include an annex.uuid line, even an empty one.
A recent change made git-annex init try to get all the remote uuids, and so
the transport error would be displayed by it. It was also displayed when
eg, copying files to a remote that had no uuid yet.
sideAction is for things not generally related to the current action being
performed. And, it adds a newline after the side action. This was not the
right thing to use for stuff like "checksum", where doing a checksum is
part of the git annex get process, and indeed we want it to display
"(checksum...) ok"
/dev/null stderr; ssh is still able to display a password prompt
despite this
Show some messages so the user knows it's locking a remote, and
knows if that locking failed.
Also, rename lockContent to lockContentExclusive
inAnnexSafe should perhaps be eliminated, and instead use
`lockContentShared inAnnex`. However, I'm waiting on that, as there are
only 2 call sites for inAnnexSafe and it's fiddly.
In c6632ee5c8, it actually only handled
uploading objects to a shared repository. To avoid verification when
downloading objects from a shared repository, was a lot harder.
On the plus side, if the process of downloading a file from a remote
is able to verify its content on the side, the remote can indicate this
now, and avoid the extra post-download verification.
As of yet, I don't have any remotes (except Git) using this ability.
Some more work would be needed to support it in special remotes.
It would make sense for tahoe to implicitly verify things downloaded from it;
as long as you trust your tahoe server (which typically runs locally),
there's cryptographic integrity. OTOH, despite bup being based on shas,
a bup repo under an attacker's control could have the git ref used for an
object changed, and so a bup repo shouldn't implicitly verify. Indeed,
tahoe seems unique in being trustworthy enough to implicitly verify.
* When annex objects are received into git repositories, their checksums are
verified then too.
* To get the old, faster, behavior of not verifying checksums, set
annex.verify=false, or remote.<name>.annex-verify=false.
* setkey, rekey: These commands also now verify that the provided file
matches the key, unless annex.verify=false.
* reinject: Already verified content; this can now be disabled by
setting annex.verify=false.
recvkey and reinject already did verification, so removed now duplicate
code from them. fsck still does its own verification, which is ok since it
does not use getViaTmp, so verification doesn't happen twice when using fsck
--from.
Since I want git-annex to keep building on debian stable, I need to still
support the old http-client, which required explicit calls to
closeManager, or use of withManager to get Managers to close at appropriate
times. This is not needed in the new version, and so they added a
deprecation warning. IMHO much too early, because look at the mess I had to
go through to avoid that deprecation warning while supporting both
versions..
Added support for storageclass=STANDARD_IA to use Amazon's
new Infrequently Accessed storage.
Also allows using storageclass=NEARLINE to use Google's NearLine storage.
The necessary changes to aws to support this are in
https://github.com/aristidb/aws/pull/176
When gpg.program is configured, it's used to get the command to run for
gpg. Useful on systems that have only a gpg2 command or want to use it
instead of the gpg command.
This only makes sense for public repos, that are not chunked, so
that there's a 1:1 from Key in the git-annex repo to file on the remote.
Rather than making every remote implementation deal with that, just disable
whereisKey when it doesn't make sense.
Note that, if an url is added to the web log for such a remote, it's not
distinguishable from another url that might be added for the web remote.
(Because the web log doesn't distinguish which remote owns a plain url.
Urls with a downloader set are distinguishable, but we're not using them
here.)
This seems ok-ish.. In such a case, both remotes will try to use both
urls, and both remotes should be able to.
The only issue I see is that dropping a file from the web remote will
remove both urls in this case. This is not often done, and could even
be considered a feature, I suppose.
Note that I had one in Annex.Action.startup too, but it resulted in a weird
message printed by ssh, "channel 2: bad ext data". I don't know why, but
it only happened when transferinfo was run, so I wonder
if 983a95f021 introduced a fragility somehow.
While cryptohash has SHA3 support, it has not been updated for the final
version of the spec. Note that cryptonite has not been ported to all arches
that cryptohash builds on yet.
Now it suffices to run git remote add, followed by git-annex sync. Now the
remote is automatically initialized for use by git-annex, where before the
git-annex branch had to manually be pushed before using git-annex sync.
Note that this involved changes to git-annex-shell, so if the remote is
using an old version, the manual push is still needed.
Implementation required git-annex-shell be changed, so configlist can
autoinit a repository even when no git-annex branch has been pushed yet.
Unfortunate because we'll have to wait for it to get deployed to servers
before being able to rely on this change in the documentation.
Did consider making git-annex sync push the git-annex branch to repos that
didn't have a uuid, but this seemed difficult to do without complicating it
in messy ways.
It would be cleaner to split a command out from configlist to handle
the initialization. But this is difficult without sacrificing backwards
compatability, for users of old git-annex versions which would not use the
new command.
"checkPresent baser" was wrong; the baser has a dummy checkPresent action
not the real one. So, to fix this, we need to call preparecheckpresent to
get a checkpresent action that can be used to check if chunks are present.
Note that, for remotes like S3, this means that the preparer is run,
which opens a S3 handle, that will be used for each checkpresent of a
chunk. That's a good thing; if we're resuming an upload that's already many
chunks in, it'll reuse that same http connection for each chunk it checks.
Still, it's not a perfectly ideal thing, since this is a different http
connection that the one that will be used to upload chunks. It would be
nice to improve the API so that both use the same http connection.
Note that it's possible for a S3 bucket to be configured to allow public
access, but for git-annex to not know that it is. I chose to not show the
url unless public=yes.
In my tests, this has to be set when uploading a file to the bucket
and then the file can be accessed using the bucketname.s3.amazonaws.com
url.
Setting it when creating the bucket didn't seem to make the whole bucket
public, or allow accessing files stored in it. But I have gone ahead and
also sent it when creating the bucket just in case that is needed in some
case.
This removes a bit of complexity, and should make things faster
(avoids tokenizing Params string), and probably involve less garbage
collection.
In a few places, it was useful to use Params to avoid needing a list,
but that is easily avoided.
Problems noticed while doing this conversion:
* Some uses of Params "oneword" which was entirely unnecessary
overhead.
* A few places that built up a list of parameters with ++
and then used Params to split it!
Test suite passes.
This is especially useful because the caller doesn't need to generate valid
url keys, which involves some escaping of characters, and may involve
taking a md5sum of the url if it's too long.
The one exception is in Utility.Daemon. As long as a process only
daemonizes once, which seems reasonable, and as long as it avoids calling
checkDaemon once it's already running as a daemon, the fcntl locking
gotchas won't be a problem there.
Annex.LockFile has it's own separate lock pool layer, which has been
renamed to LockCache. This is a persistent cache of locks that persist
until closed.
This is not quite done; lockContent stil needs to be converted.
Only the assistant uses these, and only the assistant cleans them up, so
make only git annex transferkeys write them,
There is one behavior change from this. If glacier is being used, and a
manual git annex get --from glacier fails because the file isn't available
yet, the assistant will no longer later see that failed transfer file and
retry the get. Hope no-one depended on that old behavior.
I've tested all the dataenc to sandi conversions except Assistant.XMPP,
and all have unchanged behavior, including behavior on large unicode code
points.
For example, it failed to get files from a bucket named S3.
Also fixes `git annex initremote UPPERCASE type=S3`, which failed with the
new aws library, with a signing error message.
The directory special remote was not affected in its normal configuration,
since annex-directory is an absolute path normally. But it could fail
when a relative path was used.
The git remote was affected even when an absolute path to it was used in
.git/config, since git-annex now converts all such paths to relative.
It sounds worse than it is. ;)
Some external special remotes may run commands that display progress on
stderr. If git-annex is run with --quiet, this should filter out such
displays while letting the errors through.
Came up with a generic way to filter out progress messages while keeping
errors, for commands that use stderr for both.
--json mode will disable command outputs too.
Useful for things like ipfs that don't use regular urls.
An external special remote can add a regular url to a key, and then
git-annex get will download it from the web. But for ipfs, we want to
instead tell git-annex that the uri uses OtherDownloader. Before this
change, the external special remote protocol lacked a way to do that.
The fix is to stop using w82s, which does not properly reconstitute unicode
strings. Instrad, use utf8 bytestring to get the [Word8] to base64. This
passes unicode through perfectly, including any invalid filesystem encoded
characters.
Note that toB64 / fromB64 are also used for creds and cipher
embedding. It would be unfortunate if this change broke those uses.
For cipher embedding, note that ciphers can contain arbitrary bytes (should
really be using ByteString.Char8 there). Testing indicated it's not safe to
use the new fromB64 there; I think that characters were incorrectly
combined.
For credpair embedding, the username or password could contain unicode.
Before, that unicode would fail to round-trip through the b64.
So, I guess this is not going to break any embedded creds that worked
before.
This bug may have affected some creds before, and if so,
this change will not fix old ones, but should fix new ones at least.
Most of the time, there will be no discreprancy between programPath and
readProgramFile.
But, the programFile might have been written by an old version of git-annex
that is still installed, while a newer one is currently running. In this
case, we want to run the same one that's currently running.
This is especially important for things like the GIT_SSH=git-annex used for
ssh connection caching.
The only code that still uses readProgramFile directly is the upgrade code,
which needs to know where the standalone git-annex was installed, in order to
upgrade it.
Avoid using fileSize which maxes out at just 2 gb on Windows.
Instead, use hFileSize, which doesn't have a bounded size.
Fixes support for files > 2 gb on Windows.
Note that the InodeCache code only needs to compare a file size,
so it doesn't matter it the file size wraps. So it has been
left as-is. This was necessary both to avoid invalidating existing inode
caches, and because the code passed FileStatus around and would have become
more expensive if it called getFileSize.

Unfortunately, this caused breakage on Windows, and possibly elsewhere,
because parentDir and takeDirectory do not behave the same when there is a
trailing directory separator.
parentDir is less safe than takeDirectory, especially when working
with relative FilePaths. It's really only useful in loops that
want to terminate at /

This threw an unusual exception w/o an error message when probing to see if
the bucket exists yet. So rather than relying on tryS3, catch all
exceptions.
This does mean that it might get an exception for some transient network
error, think this means the bucket DNE yet, and try to create it, and then
fail when it already exists.
When uploading the last part of a file, which was 640229 bytes, S3 rejected
that part: "Your proposed upload is smaller than the minimum allowed size"
I don't know what the minimum is, but the fix is just to include the last
part into the previous part. Since this can result in a part that's
double-sized, use half-sized parts normally.
Unfortunately, I don't fully understand why it was leaking using the old
method of a lazy bytestring. I just know that it was leaking, despite
neither hGetUntilMetered nor byteStringPopper seeming to leak by
themselves.
The new method avoids the lazy bytestring, and simply reads chunks from the
handle and streams them out to the http socket.
Untested and not even compiled yet.
Testing should include checks that file content streams through without
buffering in memory.
Note that CL.consume causes all the etags to be buffered in memory.
This is probably nearly unavoidable, since a request has to be constructed
that contains the list of etags in its body. (While it might be possible to
stream generation of the body, that would entail making a http request that
dribbles out parts of the body as the multipart uploads complete, which is
not likely to work well..
To limit this being a problem, it's best for partsize to be set to some
suitably large value, like 1gb. Then a full terabyte file will need only
1024 etags to be stored, which will probably use around 1 mb of memory.
I'm a little stuck on getting the list of etags of the parts.
This seems to require taking the md5 of each part locally,
which doesn't get along well with lazily streaming in the part from the
file. It would need to read the file twice, or lose laziness and buffer a
whole part -- but parts might be quite large.
This seems to be a problem with the API provided; S3 is supposed to return
an etag, but that is not exposed. I have filed a bug:
https://github.com/aristidb/aws/issues/141
That and S3 are all that uses creds currently, except that external
remotes can use creds. I have not handled showing info about external
remote creds because they can have 0, 1, or more separate cred pairs, and
there's no way for info to enumerate them or know how they're used.
So it seems ok to leave out creds info for external remotes.
This is intended to let the user easily tell if a remote's creds are
coming from info embedded in the repository, or instead from the
environment, or perhaps are locally stored in a creds file.

Now `git annex info $remote` shows info specific to the type of the remote,

Remote types that support encryption or chunking also include that in their

When decryption fails, the repo must be using non-encrypted creds. Note
that creds are encrypted/decrypted using the encryption cipher which is
stored in the repo, so the decryption cannot fail due to missing gpg keys
etc. (For !shared encryptiom, the cipher is iteself encrypted using some
gpg key(s), and the decryption of the cipher happens earlier, so not
affected by this change.
Print a warning message for !shared repos, and continue on using the
cipher. Wrote a page explaining what users hit by this bug should do.
This commit was sponsored by Samuel Tardieu.
encryptionSetup must be called before setRemoteCredPair. Otherwise,
the RemoteConfig doesn't have the cipher in it, and so no cipher is used to
encrypt the embedded creds.
This is a security fix for non-shared encryption methods!
For encryption=shared, there's no security problem, just an
inconsistentency in whether the embedded creds are encrypted.
This is very important to get right, so used some types to help ensure that
setRemoteCredPair is only run after encryptionSetup. Note that the external
special remote bypasses the type safety, since creds can be set after the
initial remote config, if the external special remote program requests it.
Also note that IA remotes never use encryption, so encryptionSetup is not
run for them at all, and again the type safety is bypassed.
This leaves two open questions:
1. What to do about S3 and glacier remotes that were set up
using encryption=pubkey/hybrid with embedcreds?
Such a git repo has a security hole embedded in it, and this needs to be
communicated to the user. Is the changelog enough?
2. enableremote won't work in such a repo, because git-annex will
try to decrypt the embedded creds, which are not encrypted, so fails.
This needs to be dealt with, especially for ecryption=shared repos,
which are not really broken, just inconsistently configured.
Noticing that problem for encryption=shared is what led to commit
fbdeeeed5f, which tried to
fix the problem by not decrypting the embedded creds.

This reverts commit fbdeeeed5f.
I can find no basis for that commit and think that I made it in error.
setRemoteCredPair always encrypts using the cipher from remoteCipher,

* New annex.hardlink setting. Closes: #758593
* init: Automatically detect when a repository was cloned with --shared,

Had to reorganize Logs.Trust a bit to avoid a cycle between it and
Annex.Init.
This avoids cp -a overriding the default mode acls that the user might have
set in a git repository.
With GNU cp, this behavior change should not be a breaking change, because
git-anex also uses rsync sometimes in the same situation, and has only ever
preserved timestamps when using rsync.
Systems without GNU cp will no longer use cp -a, but instead just cp.
So, timestamps will no longer be preserved. Preserving timestamps when
copying between repos is not guaranteed anyway.
Closes: #729757
This fixed one bug where it needed to be and wasn't (in Assistant.Unused).

This does mean that eg, copying multiple files to a local remote will
become slightly slower, since it now restarts git-cat-file after each copy.
Should not be significant slowdown.
The reason git-cat-file is run on the remote at all is to update its
location log. In order to add an item to it, it needs to get the current
content of the log. Finding a way to avoid needing to do that would be a
good path to avoiding this slowdown if it does become a problem somehow.

This fixes at part of #758630. I reproduced the assistant locking eg, a

This did not affect Windows.
Considered doing a portable Utility.LockFile layer, but git-annex uses
posix locks in several special ways that have no direct Windows equivilant,
and it seems like it would mostly be a complication.

Since encryption=shared, the encryption key is stored in the git repo, so
there is no point at all in encrypting the creds, also stored in the git
repo with that key. So `initremote` doesn't. The creds are simply stored
base-64 encoded.
However, it then tried to always decrypt creds when encryption was used..
Added a mkUnavailable method, which a Remote can use to generate a version
of itself that is not available. Implemented for several, but not yet all
remotes.
This allows testing that checkPresent properly throws an exceptions when
it cannot check if a key is present or not. It also allows testing that the
other methods don't throw exceptions in these circumstances.
This immediately found several bugs, which this commit also fixes!
* git remotes using ssh accidentially had checkPresent return
an exception, rather than throwing it
* The chunking code accidentially returned False rather than
propigating an exception when there were no chunks and
checkPresent threw an exception for the non-chunked key.

Implemented the Retriever.
Unfortunately, it is a fileRetriever and not a byteRetriever.
It should be possible to convert this to a byteRetiever, but I got stuck:
The conduit sink needs to process individual chunks, but a byteRetriever
needs to pass a single L.ByteString to its callback for processing. I
looked into using unsafeInerlaveIO to build up the bytestring lazily,
but the sink is already operating under conduit's inversion of control,
and does not run directly in IO anyway.
On the plus side, no more memory leak..
Fixes the memory leak on store.. the second oldest open git-annex bug!
Only retrieve remains to be converted.

Currently, initremote works, but not the other operations. They should be
fairly easy to add from this base.
Also, https://github.com/aristidb/aws/issues/119 blocks internet archive

Note that since http-conduit is used, this also adds https support to S3.
Although git-annex encrypts everything anyway, so that may not be extremely
useful. It is not enabled by default, because existing S3 special remotes
have port=80 in their config. Setting port=443 will enable it.

Removed old extensible-exceptions, only needed for very old ghc.
Made webdav use Utility.Exception, to work after some changes in DAV's
exception handling.
Removed Annex.Exception. Mostly this was trivial, but note that
tryAnnex is replaced with tryNonAsync and catchAnnex replaced with
catchNonAsync. In theory that could be a behavior change, since the former
caught all exceptions, and the latter don't catch async exceptions.
However, in practice, nothing in the Annex monad uses async exceptions.
Grepping for throwTo and killThread only find stuff in the assistant,
which does not seem related.
Command.Add.undo is changed to accept a SomeException, and things
that use it for rollback now catch non-async exceptions, rather than
only IOExceptions.
This speeds up the webdav special remote somewhat, since it often now
groups actions together in a single http connection when eg, storing a
file.
Legacy chunks are still supported, but have not been sped up.
This depends on a as-yet unreleased version of DAV.
This commit was sponsored by Thomas Hochstein.
Reusing http connection when operating on chunks is not done yet,
I had to submit some patches to DAV to support that. However, this is no
slower than old-style chunking was.
Note that it's a fileRetriever and a fileStorer, despite DAV using
bytestrings that would allow streaming. As a result, upload/download of
encrypted files is made a bit more expensive, since it spools them to temp
files. This was needed to get the progress meters to work.
There are probably ways to avoid that.. But it turns out that the current
DAV interface buffers the whole file content in memory, and I have
sent in a patch to DAV to improve its interfaces. Using the new interfaces,
it's certainly going to need to be a fileStorer, in order to read the file
size from the file (getting the size of a bytestring would destroy
laziness). It should be possible to use the new interface to make it be a
byteRetriever, so I'll change that when I get to it.
This commit was sponsored by Andreas Olsson.
This will allow special remotes to eg, open a http connection and reuse it,
while checking if chunks are present, or removing chunks.
S3 and WebDAV both need this to support chunks with reasonable speed.
Note that a special remote might want to cache a http connection across
multiple requests. A simple case of this is that CheckPresent is typically
called before Store or Remove. A remote using this interface can certianly
use a Preparer that eg, uses a MVar to cache a http connection.
However, it's up to the remote to then deal with things like stale or
stalled http connections when eg, doing a series of downloads from a remote
and other places. There could be long delays between calls to a remote,
which could lead to eg, http connection stalls; the machine might even
move to a new network, etc.
It might be nice to improve this interface later to allow
the simple case without needing to handle the full complex case.
One way to do it would be to have a `Transaction SpecialRemote cache`,
where SpecialRemote contains methods for Storer, Retriever, Remover, and
CheckPresent, that all expect to be passed a `cache`.
I tend to prefer moving toward explicit exception handling, not away from
it, but in this case, I think there are good reasons to let checkPresent
throw exceptions:
1. They can all be caught in one place (Remote.hasKey), and we know
every possible exception is caught there now, which we didn't before.
2. It simplified the code of the Remotes. I think it makes sense for
Remotes to be able to be implemented without needing to worry about
catching exceptions inside them. (Mostly.)
3. Types.StoreRetrieve.Preparer can only work on things that return a
Bool, which all the other relevant remote methods already did.
I do not see a good way to generalize that type; my previous attempts
failed miserably.
This involved making Remote.Gcrypt.gen expect a Repo with a regular,
non-gcrypt path. Since tht is what's stored as the Remote's gitrepo,
testremote can then modify it and feed it back into gen.
When files are stored using rsync, they have their write bit removed;
so does the directory they're put in. The local repo code did not turn
these bits back on, so failed to remove.
This reaping of any processes came to cause me problems when redoing the
rsync special remote -- a gpg process that was running gets waited on and
the place that then checks its return code fails.
I cannot reproduce any zombies when using the rsync special remote.
But I still can when using a normal git remote, accessed over ssh.
There is 1 zombie per file downloaded without this horrible hack enabled.
So, move the hack to only be used in that case.
Make the byteRetriever be passed the callback that consumes the bytestring.
This way, there's no worries about the lazy bytestring not all being read
when the resource that's creating it is closed.
Which in turn lets bup, ddar, and S3 each switch from using an unncessary
fileRetriver to a byteRetriever. So, more efficient on chunks and encrypted
files.
The only remaining fileRetrievers are hook and external, which really do
retrieve to files.
bup already splits files and does rolling deltas, so there is no reason to
use chunking here.
The new API made it easier to add progress support for storeKey, so that's
done. Unfortunately, bup-split still outputs its own progress with -q,
so a little ugly, but not too bad.
Made dropping remove the branch for an object, for two reasons:
1. The new API calls removeKey to roll back a storeKey when the content
changed unexpectedly.
2. So that testremote will be happy.
Also, fixed a bug that caused a crash when removing the branch for an
object in rollback.
Chunking would complicate the assistant's code that checks when a pending
retrieval of a key from glacier is done. It would perhaps be nice to
support it to allow resuming, but not right now.
Converting to the new API still simplifies the code.
The forall a. in Preparer made resourcePrepare not seem to be usable, so
I specialized a to Bool. Which works for both Preparer Storer and
Preparer Retriever, but wouldn't let the Preparer be used for hasKey
as it currently stands.
And fixed a bug found by these tests; retrieveKeyFile would fail
when the dest file was already complete.

The content of unstable keys can potentially be different in different
repos, so eg, resuming a chunked upload started by another repo would
corrupt data.
This way, when the remote implementation neglects to update progress,
there will still be a somewhat useful progress display, as long as chunks
are used.
No need to read whole FileContent only to write it back out to a file in
this case. Can just rename! Yay.
Also indidentially, fixed an attempt to open a file for write that was
already opened for write, which caused a crash and deadlock.
Putting a callback in the Retriever type allows for the callback to
remove the retrieved file when it's done with it.
I did not really want to make Retriever be fixed to Annex Bool,
but when I tried to use Annex a, I got into some type of type mess.
Needed for eg, Remote.External.
Generally, any Retriever that stores content in a file is responsible for
updating the meter, while ones that procude a lazy bytestring cannot update
the meter, so are not asked to.
Some remotes like External need to run store and retrieve actions in Annex,
not IO. In order to do that lift, I had to dive pretty deep into the
utilities, making Utility.Gpg and Utility.Tmp be partly converted to using
MonadIO, and Control.Monad.Catch for exception handling.
There should be no behavior changes in this commit.

Leverage the new chunked remotes to automatically resume uploads.
Sort of like rsync, although of course not as efficient since this
needs to start at a chunk boundry.
But, unlike rsync, this method will work for S3, WebDAV, external
special remotes, etc, etc. Only directory special remotes so far,
but many more soon!
This implementation will also allow starting an upload from one repository,
interrupting it, and then resuming the upload to the same remote from
an entirely different repository.
Note that I added a comment that storeKey should atomically move the content
into place once it's all received. This was already an undocumented
requirement -- it's necessary for hasKey to work reliably. This resume code
just uses hasKey to find the first chunk that's missing.
Note that if there are two uploads of the same key to the same chunked remote,
one might resume at the point the other had gotten to, but both will then
redundantly upload. As before.
In the non-resume case, this adds one hasKey call per storeKey, and only
if the remote is configured to use chunks. Future work: Try to eliminate that
hasKey. Notice that eg, `git annex copy --to` checks if the key is present
before sending it, so is already running hasKey.. which could perhaps
be cached and reused.
However, this additional overhead is not very large compared with
transferring an entire large file, and the ability to resume
is certianly worth it. There is an optimisation in place for small files,
that avoids trying to resume if the whole file fits within one chunk.

Leverage the new chunked remotes to automatically resume downloads.
Sort of like rsync, although of course not as efficient since this
needs to start at a chunk boundry.
But, unlike rsync, this method will work for S3, WebDAV, external
special remotes, etc, etc. Only directory special remotes so far,
but many more soon!
This implementation will also properly handle starting a download
from one remote, interrupting, and resuming from another one, and so on.
(Resuming interrupted chunked uploads is similarly doable, although
slightly more expensive.)

When chunk=0, always try the unchunked key first. This avoids the overhead
of needing to read the git-annex branch to find the chunkcount.
However, if the unchunked key is not present, go on and try the chunks.
Also, when removing a chunked key, update the chunkcounts even when
chunk=0.
No need to process each L.ByteString chunk, instead ask it to split.
Doesn't seem to have really sped things up much, but it also made the code
simpler.
Note that this does (and already did) buffer in memory. It seems that only
the directory special remote could take advantage of streaming chunks to
files w/o buffering, so probably won't add an interface to allow for that.
This will allow things like WebDAV to opean a single persistent connection
and reuse it for all the chunked data.
The crazy types allow for some nice code reuse.
Push it down from needing to be done in every Storer,
to being checked once inside ChunkedEncryptable.
Also, catch exceptions from PrepareStorer and PrepareRetriever,
just in case..
I'd have liked to keep these two concepts entirely separate,
but that are entagled: Storing a key in an encrypted and chunked remote
need to generate chunk keys, encrypt the keys, chunk the data, encrypt the
chunks, and send them to the remote. Similar for retrieval, etc.
So, here's an implemnetation of all of that.
The total win here is that every remote was implementing encrypted storage
and retrival, and now it can move into this single place. I expect this
to result in several hundred lines of code being removed from git-annex
eventually!

Not yet used by any special remotes, but should not be too hard to add it
to most of them.
storeChunks is the hairy bit! It's loosely based on
Remote.Directory.storeLegacyChunked. The object is read in using a lazy
bytestring, which is streamed though, creating chunks as needed, without
ever buffering more than 1 chunk in memory.
Getting the progress meter update to work right was also fun, since
progress meter values are absolute. Finessed by constructing an offset
meter.

Slightly tricky as they are not normal UUIDBased logs, but are instead maps
from (uuid, chunksize) to chunkcount.

Moved old legacy chunking code, and cleaned up the directory and webdav
remotes use of it, so when no chunking is configured, that code is not
used.
The config for new style chunking will be chunk=1M instead of chunksize=1M.

This is a security/usability tradeoff. To avoid exposing the gpg key ids
who can decrypt the repository, users can unset
gcrypt-publish-participants.
The gcrypt-publish-participants option is available in my fork of
git-remote-gcrypt.

Catch an exception when ensureInitialized is run in a non-initted
repository. In this case, just read the git config, so that the Git.Repo
object is not LocalUnknown, which is what is used to represent remotes
on eg, drives that are not connected.
The assistant already got this right, and like with the assistant, this
causes an implicit git-annex init of the local remote on the second sync,
once the git-annex branch has been pushed to it.

It is useful to be able to specify an alternative git-annex-shell
program to execute on the remote, e.g., to run a version not on the
PATH. Use remote.<name>.annex-shell if specified, instead of the
default "git-annex-shell" i.e., first so-named executable on the
PATH.
Version 5.20140227 broke creation of glacier repositories, not including
the datacenter and vault in their configuration. This bug is fixed, but
glacier repositories set up with the broken version of git-annex need to
have the datacenter and vault set in order to be usable. This can be done
using git annex enableremote to add the missing settings. For details, see

Motivation: Hook scripts for nautilus or other file managers
need to provide the user with feedback that a file is being downloaded.

Benchmarking this with 1000 small files being copied, the time reduced from
15.98s to 14.64s -- an 8% improvement in the non-data-transfer overhead of
git-annex copy.
This allows eg, putting .git/annex/tmp on a ram disk, if the disk IO
of temp object files is too annoying (and if you don't want to keep
partially transferred objects across reboots).
.git/annex/misctmp must be on the same filesystem as the git work tree,
since files are moved to there in a way that will not work cross-device,
as well as symlinked into there.
I first wanted to put the tmp objects in .git/annex/objects/tmp, but
that would pose transition problems on upgrade when partially transferred
objects existed.
git annex info does not currently show the size of .git/annex/misctemp,
since it should stay small. It would also be ok to make something clean it
out, periodically.
This breakage seems to have been caused way back in a1eded86,
but I am pretty sure rsync.net support has not been entirely
broken since last April. AFAICS, the generated .ssh/config
has not changed since then -- it has never included a Username setting
line. So, I am puzzled at when this reversion was introduced.
Note that the breakage only affected checkpresent and remove. Upload and
download use the ssh connection caching, which includes a -l username.
Removed instance, got it all to build using fromRef. (With a few things
that really need to show something using a ref for debugging stubbed out.)
Then added back Read instance, and made Logs.View use it for serialization.
This changes the view log format.
Potentially fixes some FD leak if an action on an opened file handle fails
for some reason. There have been some hard to reproduce reports of
git-annex leaking FDs, and this may solve them.
Similar to the assistant, this honors any configured preferred content
expressions.
I am not entirely happpy with the implementation. It would be nicer if
the seek function returned a list of actions which included the individual
file gets and copies and drops, rather than the current list of calls to
syncContent. This would allow getting rid of the somewhat reundant display
of "sync file [ok|failed]" after the get/put display.
But, do that, withFilesInGit would need to somehow be able to construct
such a mixed action list. And it would be less efficient than the current
implementation, which is able to reuse several values between eg get and
drop.
Note that currently this does not try to satisfy numcopies when
getting/putting files (numcopies are of course checked when dropping
files!) This makes it like the assistant, and unlike get --auto
and copy --auto, which do duplicate files when numcopies is not yet
satisfied. I don't know if this is the right decision; it only seemed to
make sense to have this parallel the assistant as far as possible to start
with, since I know the assistant works.

Known problems:
1. Tries to tahoe start when daemon is already running.
2. If multiple tahoe remotes are set up on the same computer,
they will have the same node.url configured by default,
and this confuses tahoe commands.
